SS headlight bezel screw set
As title? Is there such a kit or individually available SS screws for the bezels and clips etc? They are special screws aren't they for the headlight adjustment.
Of course I'd have to get them aligned then Rolling Eyes but still would be worthwhile I think.

Suggestions welcome. Thumbs Up Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧

Interesting question Steve. It is those little things that can make a difference. So do I understand that those little screws are not included with the SS Naka package you bought and installed?
Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

No they aren't included, (a few other bits weren't either) but that doesn't worry me.
When I bought the SS bezels I was kinda disappointed they didn't come with the hardware then, but left it at the time as I had no choice.
Of course after that I had them professionally aligned of which will need to be done again if I swap for SS versions. Rolling Eyes
They aren't just regular screws as some have a little collar on them to adjust the beam angle.

Perhaps Peter at Naka could look into this if Brendan can work some magic? Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧

Im sure when I bought them stainless bezels off ebay for my old 110 it came with stainless screws (the special type)
I cant be certain as was a year or so ago, but Zero Gravitas on here bought it off me the end of last year on here. If you message him on here he might be kind enough to have a look for you?
If so theres a chance i might be able to look back and see who mine came from.

Have a look here Steve. They do a whole load of Land Rover specific fixing kits (can't see one for those that you describe though), but they also do a huge array of fixings, so very likely to have a stainless replacement for whatever you're looking for. I've used them many times and always had top service and quality items. 2005 Td5 | 90 Station Wagon | Tonga Green

Stig Fasteneres, that's the SS screws I used for my SVX. If someone on your side of the North Sea will check with them about these SS headlamp screws, pls let us know. Would be interested too.

Now, I don't know if the screws on a normal Defender front and on a SVX front are the same. I just checked, and in total there are about 8 screws around each SVX headlamp. The screw in position 06.00 hrs is the one for adjusting the lamp up/downward. Good thing is, none of mine in my SS bezels is showing any sign of rust.

Your wish is our command Razz


Looking at a time scale of about 3-4 weeks?



Will that satisfy you?

Let's just say it is being worked on, Steve

At this stage no idea on prices but have been given a possible timescale of 3-4 weeks.


Just remember timescales can be a moveable feast and elastic!

Ah I see, I think that could be another possible group buy that would be popular again. (I'd leave that to you)
